The Signs and Billboards of Akihabara Vol.2!

The bright lights and billboards are always changing in Akihabara and thanks to our friends at Akiba PLUS we get constant updates on them all! Walking the streets and taking everything in is one of my favorite things to do in Akiba, so this is one way we’re trying to bring Akiba a little closer to you.
